Best thanks are tendered to the several firms and individuals who have kindly assisted by word and deed the compilation and illustration of the present work, especially to Mr. W. E. Moore, of Birmingham (himself a Silver Medalist in connexion with the City and Guilds of London Examination in Typography), for many kindly hints and valuable assistance in the revision of these pages; Mr. W. G. Hughes, Silver Medalist of Birmingham; and to Mr. J. E. Johnson, Technical Teacher, of Manchester.
The author's experience as a Certificated Teacher of Typography at the Midland Institute and other places, has convinced him of the existing need of a Practical Handbook like the present, and he trusts that his work will meet with the appreciation of the disciples of the art of Gutenberg.
